Universe2.0/Generations Review Thread

The modern comics universe has had such a different take on G1, one that's significantly represented by the Generations toys, so they share a forum. A modern take on a Real Cybertronian Hero. Currently starring Generations toys, IDW "The Transformers" comics, MTMTE, TF vs GI Joe, and Windblade. Oh wait, and now Skybound, wheee!

No, Sunstorm is supposed to be from MTMTE part 1. He's in the same scene as Wasteland.
Argh, I'm confused. So the Rainmakers are: Acid Storm, another orangey-yellow guy, and who else, now?

There's a Yellow Rainmaker who doesn't even vaguely remember Sunstorm. And a blueish purpley one.

Wasteland is This Guy:

The guys in the back are Sunstorm, Blue Guy and Dark Blue Guy. Dark Blue Guy is vague enough that he could, retroactively, be established as Slaughterhouse, but eh.

Well if you guys read the Q&As on most of the other sites, you know that Acid Storm was suppose to be Sunstorm until they changed their minds. So apparently according to them, we should see most or all of the obscure seekers eventually.

Don't forget Cyberstorm, leader of all the rarely/unseen seeker teams that will be made eventually.

Maybe the upcoming Encore Sunstorm has discouraged Habro from making a "Universe" Sunstorm.

I hate that old mold, but I like Sunstorm, on the strength of his one appearance in the US comic. Putting aside fashonable anti-Dreamwave sentiment, it was a good story.

They actually hinted that they were going to get to Sunstorm. They actually said that they were going to do the obscure seekers before they get around to re-painting Thudercracker, Dirge, Ramjet, and Skywarp.

Yeah, because nobody wants Thundercracker, but everybody wants random blue jack-ass nubmer 1, or maybe random yellow idiot.

Who wants named characters?
